Parade in the Street

This morning we walked out of our apartment to see the military band piling out of their bus on our street. It could only mean one thing- a parade!! Our apartment is 2 blocks from La Mondeda, the Presedential Palace and government building. It is like being in Washington, DC and living 2 blocks from the White House. But apparently here they do a changing of the guard ceremony every other morning, just like London (as our friend aptly put it). Naturally, when there is a parade on your street, you follow along, and this morning was a real treat.
